The AirTAC Airtac SCJ50 Standard Cylinder SCJ50X75-20S is a genuine double-acting SINGLE-ROD air cylinder with a rear-cap ADJUSTING SCREW: the stroke end is field-adjustable within a 20 mm range without swapping the cylinder. Ø50mm bore, 75mm nominal stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ50X75-20S is a double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder with a field-adjustable stroke end, providing a nominal 75 mm stroke that can be shortened by up to 20 mm via the rear-cap screw. This 50 mm bore unit delivers 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it a solid mid-range actuator for tasks requiring fine positional tuning during commissioning or changeovers.
Equipped with a built-in magnet, this model accepts CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors for direct barrel-mounted position feedback without extra brackets. It uses a 20 mm piston rod, PT1/4 ports, and an M16x1.5 rod thread, with a 21 mm air cushion and a body length of 194 mm. The standard TPU seal suits ambient temperatures from -20 to +70 °C.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SCJ (adjustable-stroke) datasheet. The rear adjusting screw sets the stroke end position; force is the same as the equivalent single-rod SC bore. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT (standard) / G.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 982 N | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 kgf | |
SCJ is single-rod, so force matches the equivalent SC bore: push uses the full bore area, pull subtracts the rod area. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure; size with a safety margin.

Related types: SC (single rod, fixed stroke), SCD (double rod), SCT (multi-position). SCJ mounting: Basic, FA, LB, TC, TCM1. Seals: TPU standard / H = Viton / N = NBR. Thread: blank = PT, G = G thread.
Technicians can fine-tune the 20 mm stroke-end adjustment on the fly to perfect the actuator's stopping position during initial machine setup, eliminating the need for shims or trial-and-error cylinder swaps.
Ideal for packaging lines where the push stroke must be quickly altered for different product sizes. The rear screw adjustment allows operators to set a new end position in seconds.
In clamping or pressing applications, the adjustable stroke can be used to take up mechanical wear in tooling or workpieces over time, maintaining consistent contact force without reprogramming.
With 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this 50 mm bore cylinder is a step up from the 40 mm SCJ (628 N) and a step below the 63 mm (1559 N). Choose the SCJ over a fixed-stroke SC when you need to dial in the stroke end on the machine without swapping cylinders or adding external hard stops. For a direct replacement, match the 50 mm bore, 75 mm nominal stroke, 20 mm adjust range, PT ports, basic mounting, and the -S magnet option of this model.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, it provides 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force. The maximum push force at 0.9 MPa is 1767 N. The force is identical to a fixed-stroke SC50 cylinder of the same bore.
A rear-cap screw lets you shorten the stroke end by up to 20 mm from the 75 mm nominal maximum. It is a direct dimensional and functional replacement for another AirTAC SCJ50X75-20S, but it is longer than a fixed-stroke SC50 and cannot be swapped into the same space without checking the 194 mm body length.
